Pope welcomes back
Anglicans
In what an Australian
bishop calls the most
significant Anglican-
Catholic development in
nearly 500 years, the Pope
has invited disenchanted
Anglicans to return to
Roman Catholicism -- as
Anglicans.
Hundreds of thousands of
Anglicans worldwide,
including hundreds of
Australians, are expected
to take up the offer to be
reunited through a
structure that makes them
full Roman Catholics while
allowing them to keep
their spiritual and worship
traditions.
Asylum boat had
holes drilled in hull
The 78 asylum seekers
plucked from Indonesian
waters by the Australian
navy at the weekend
sabotaged their boat by
drilling holes into its hull.
And another boatload of
asylum seekers was
intercepted yesterday near
Ashmore Island. It was
carrying 22 passengers,
believed to be from the
Middle East, and two
crew, near Ashmore
Island. It was being taken
to Christmas Island.
It is the 34th such boat this
year, making a total of 1767
boat people seeking asylum.
US water plane order
'cancelled'
An American DC-10 water-
carrying plane ordered for
last summer's fire season,
and which would have
saved lives, was cancelled
at the last moment, a
union official says.
The plane, which can
dump 43,000 litres of water
at a time, was expected
by firefighters in anticipation
of one of the worst fire
seasons on record, the
national secretary of the
United Firefighters Union,
Peter Marshall, said.
Live fire necessary: ADF
The Australian Defence Force
maintains training with live
ammunition is necessary,
despite the death of a soldier
in South Australia.
Civil and military
investigations are underway
into the death of Lance
Corporal Mason Edwards
during a live fire night
training session at Cultana
Army Barracks near Port
Augusta.
Lance Corporal Edwards
was fatally shot in the head
while an unnamed soldier
suffered shrapnel wounds to
his arms and was scheduled
to be released from hospital
yesterday afternoon.
The 30-year-old soldier's
regiment was preparing for
a mission to Afghanistan.
Chief of Army Lieutenant
General Ken Gillespie said
mission rehearsal exercises
saved lives on operations and
are a vital part of the army's
force protection measures.
General Gillespie said the
close-quarter, direct-action
exercise was part of a
demanding mission rehearsal
exercise conducted by special
forces to prepare for operations.
He said Lance Corporal
Edwards had been deployed
to Afghanistan twice before.
"I know for a fact that
Mason was a committed
and determined soldier;
tremendously proud of his
service and his mates with
whom he served.
"In a task of this nature, our
Special Forces soldiers act in
unison to apply lethal force
in a complex environment.
"Most of the soldiers involved
in the training are veterans of
multiple operations to the
Middle East.
"
The remaining soldiers in
the unit will still be deployed
to Afghanistan.
The federal workplace safety
regulator Comcare is
investigating the incident in
collaboration with South
Australian police and the
Australian Defence Force.
